Leave-in conditioners to revive sun damaged hair
Hot weather. It’s great, but it puts your hair through the wringer!
Protect against humidity with these 6 leave-in conditioners...
Five ways to fight the frizz this summer
1. INVEST IN SUNSCREEN FOR YOUR HAIR
Apply it daily to freshly washed hair, and leave in all day to protect and nourish. Simply twist your hair into a bun or slick it back. Rinse off at night and style as normal.
2. ALWAYS WASH YOUR HAIR AFTER THE POOL
Sea water won't do much damage to your hair overnight but chlorine will, especially if your hair is coloured. In fact if your hair is dyed, swimming in the pool could change the tone of your colour so keep hair tied up when taking the plunge.
3. DON'T OVERSTYLE YOUR HAIR
Holidays are the perfect opportunity to relax your haircare regime. That means messy plaits, headbands or just tying it back in a simple ponytail.
4. USE HAIR OILS TO CALM THE FRIZZ
We like L'Oreal's Elvive Extraordinary Hair Oil to keep our hair frizz-free. Buy it here.
5. BOOK IN FOR A COLOUR, CUT OR TREATMENT WHEN YOU'RE BACK
Restore your hair to its former glory with a chop, colour or conditioning treatment at Pankhurst and Deane. Just give us a call or use our contact form to book your next appointment.

How to repair dry hair at home

It’s going to be a hot one this weekend and lovely as the sunshine is, it can really play havoc with your hair.
So, how do you repair dry, sun-damaged hair? Here are our top tips:
Use protection
UV rays can damage your hair as well as your skin. Investing in a hair protector that has UV filters has the same effect as sun cream, shielding the strands from harmful rays (which can break down the structure of your hair as well as fade any colour).

Invest in a hair mask
Just like hydrating yourself with a glass of water (or a cool G&T), using a hair mask puts moisture back into the hair giving it a new lease of life.
It also helps weakened hair follicles to regain strength and elasticity, helping to avoid further sun damage.

Fight humidity with a hair serum
Rising temperatures can leave any hair type frizzy and fluffy, and a good hair serum is the fastest way to restore order.
The best hair serums will work to smooth frizz while also adding shine, making your hair look as healthy as can be. What’s more, today’s best options come with a whole host of added benefits, from colour-protecting ingredients to nourishing actives and deep-hydrating extracts.

Don’t forget your scalp
Just like the skin on your face, your scalp can become dry and sensitive when it is exposed to the sun. You may even find your parting becomes pink and burnt if you leave it unprotected.
Like your skin, you should treat your scalp to some extra TLC in the summer, using products that specifically address your issues. For instance, applying a weekly soothing scalp mask in the summer is a great way to calm and moisturise your scalp. Daily hydrating scalp toners can also be very beneficial – a healthy scalp is key to hair growth.
